Trigger Clips in Adjacent Tracks at the Same time with One Button

Post by R. » Sun Sep 08, 2024 1:47 pm

Hey Folks,

Im wondering if there is a functionality like 'Follow Actions' which works across tracks as well as scenes.

Picture this, I have a pad clip in track 1 and a bass clip in track 2. They both need to be triggered at the same time in order for the Harmony to be correct.

For one reason or another sometimes I'll only trigger on clip, and I'm trying to create some sort of fail safe so that when the pad clip is triggered the bass clip will also be triggered at the same time.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Or midi/key map both clips to a single key.

Is there a reason why you would not want to use a scene for this?
